Arcadium Lithium has acquired Li-Metal’s lithium metal business for $11 million. The deal includes Li-Metal’s pilot production facility in Ontario, Canada. Arcadium says the acquisition gives it safer and lower-cost technologies to produce lithium metal from lithium carbonate; it already produces lithium metal from lithium chloride. The firm uses lithium metal to make chemicals for medicine, agriculture, and electronics, and hopes to supply it to next-generation battery makers in the future.
